I think there is nothing wrong with your fstab,
I was lying, could be that you lack the rw option, here is my line:
//marsman/jade /mnt/marsman smbfs user,rw,iocharset=utf8,uid=500,gid=500,fmask=775,dmask=775,password=thepassword,user=jade 0 0
So far, Thomas
maybe you have no write permission on the XP machine with the user bryan. Also im not sure if umask=000 is such a good thing. Any other comments on that?
I'm slowly getting there.....many things have been worked through and solutions found, but I am having some problems still with the networking. I have created a link to (url) smb://10.0.0.4 which is the WinXP box and can browse my shares, copy files over, etc.
I have created a line in /etc/fstab to automount the share:
//10.0.0.4/data_shared /mnt/data_shared smbfs username=bryan,password=jasper,umask=000 0 0
(that's all on one line)
This gives me a /mnt/data_shared that I can open and copy files from, but if I try and create a directory on the share, or delete a file,
I get an error message saying "access denied"
What have I got wrong/missing from my fstab line? Any ideas?
